Testimonials

‘Whenever I refer patients to Clare I am confident that, if the problem can be solved, she will solve it. Her expertise and calm, confident manner has provided help and reassurance to countless mothers over the years.’
Dr Tim Evans (Royal Physician)

‘With Mia I had real problems getting her to latch on and was close to giving up when I got advice from Clare. I just can’t praise her enough - she has a really straightforward way of describing the latching-on technique and has managed to get mothers breast-feeding when they really thought they would never get it.’
Kate Winslet

‘This book should be handed out with the first contraction. Clare is a true ‘baby whisperer’ who will save you and your baby hours of torment. Her kind, commonsense and amazingly informed advice was as essential to me as breastpads and chocolate. Buy this book!’
Kate Beckinsale

‘I booked Clare to come round the day my fourth child was born, and the breast-feeding has, for the first time, worked from the first day.’
Emma Freud

‘Breast-feeding is one of those things you go through life assuming to be natural and easy, but when I was pregnant I began to hear lots of horror stories about bleeding nipples and awful pain. So I booked Clare to come and see me by way of a pre-emptive strike. It was fantastic. She showed me how to place the baby at the right level using a pillow and pretty early on I was able to feed him, hands-free.’
Helena Bonham Carter

‘When I read Clare’s book I realised how much I had to learn, and how much could so easily go wrong. The hour or so I spent with her was one of the most valuable in my motherhood preparation. I always thought that breast-feeding would be a chore but I have to say it is one of the highlights of my day.’
Gabby Logan

‘Despite being a professional working with children I soon realised that at a personal level common sense can go out of the window. As an uncle and more recently a father I have very gratefully accepted Clare’s straight-talking, no-nonsense approach. Not only do I now have a niece and son who eat and consequently sleep better but Clare’s invaluable help has resulted in four happier parents as well.’
Atul J Sabhawal, Consultant Paediatric Surgeon

Clare really knows what she is talking about.

It was such a relief to read common sense advice that was not pompous or judgemental
